    I’d guess the greens are fantastic and the cost is to keep play at the right number (and clientele).

    I haven’t warmed up to the Jewel yet. Couple of strange holes.

        Like the Jewel quite a bit. Great track.

        Played Tatanka in Niobrara, Nebraska this summer and it was spectacular. Highly recommend --

          We need an NSIC board golf tournament.

          We also need a thread of best/favorite golf courses in NSIC states

            The most difficult golf course in an NSIC market, non-Twin Cities division, is Winona's Bridges Golf Course. It's not close.

            • I always thought it was cool that the NSIC ran the women's tournament in my backyard at Dacotah Ridge for several years. I don't blame them moving it south given the time of year they have to play.

              Great course from what I've heard. Haven't played myself since probably 9th grade, so I never got to try it.

                They have one of my most detailed scorecards too. Only one Ive seen in the area that has distances to traps and hazards.

                    Oakdale next to Lake Allie north of Buffalo Lake. You can eat at Chip Shots, where I have been to a number of class reunions. A few years ago they hosted the UMAC golf tournament.

                      Great thinking and suggestion. But Laker, you know it would have to be in Sioux Falls

                        I’ve heard a lot of good things about the course but have yet to play it. And reading through the course history has me even more intrigued

                          That is tremendous work by the Bridges, EXTREMELY useful on #11 tee

                            It's also usually in tremendous condition for a public golf course in a town Winona's size. It's just relentless from a difficulty standpoint, especially on the back nine.

                              Conditions, especially greens & tee boxes are top priority 👍🏻

                              10/11/12/16/17 are all of the original design it appears. Must have been very difficult when it opened (although I’d guess some yardage has been added since?)

                                It was a private course for a long time, had tennis courts, pool, lockerrooms, and club storage. 20ish years ago, Bob Kierlin, the founder of Fastenal bought it and turned it public. Tore most of the buildings down and build a beautiful event center, new clubhouse, and a bar and grill restaurant. He passed away last winter so it will be interesting who takes over.
